252: The Celestial Master Cave on Longhu Mountain is indeed extraordinary.

They also painted tattoos on their cheeks and necks, making them look like real vampires.

Afterward, Ye Bai led them out, heading straight for the location of the Ancient Tomb.

The three of them soon arrived near the Ancient Tomb. Ye Bai told them to hide in the grass.

He circled the mountain wall and climbed to the peak. Upon reaching the location of the Ancient Tomb, Ye Bai saw a huge Stone Stele. Behind the Stone Stele stood a massive stone slab. On the stone slab were two large words—Longhu Mountain Tianshi Cave!

Ye Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "Just as I suspected, ancient humans worshipped the arts of Ghosts and gods, and they built their Ancient Tombs on mountains. This is both a place to offer sacrifices to Ghosts and gods and a way to prevent Tomb Robbers from stealing the Tomb's treasures."

"Therefore, the guards here must be strict. However, the material of this Stone Stele isn't hard; it's just an ordinary stone slab. With such craftsmanship, even after a thousand years, it probably can't resist the erosion of millennial ice."

Ye Bai looked around; besides a deep and narrow Passage, there was nothing. He pondered for a moment and decided to explore first. After all, many lives had been lost here; it was definitely not simple.

This Passage wasn't long, only five or six hundred meters. At the end of the Passage was a thick Bronze Door. The Bronze Door was tightly closed, with many runes drawn on it using cinnabar.

Ye Bai reached out and patted the Bronze Door. A booming sound came from within, as if an ancient beast was sealed inside.

He tried to push the Bronze Door but couldn't move it; instead, it hurt his palm.

Ye Bai withdrew his hand and said, "It's indeed tough to handle. This door is cast from bronze, likely some special material."

He studied the Bronze Door carefully but still couldn't figure out its secret. He looked up at the various patterns and lines carved on the Bronze Door, finally resting his gaze on the stone slab.

There was a line of writing on the stone slab. Ye Bai leaned in to observe closely. The writing was in traditional characters; he didn't know many, so it took him ten minutes to barely make them out.

"To break this formation, one must collect nine Exorcism Talismans. If even one Talismanic Incantation is missing, the door cannot be opened."

Understanding the meaning of this sentence, Ye Bai gave a bitter smile.

"Nine Exorcism Talismans? How is it possible to get them all? Even if they could be collected, who would be foolish enough to sell them for money?" he grumbled to himself. "This is clearly making things difficult!"

Ye Bai thought it over and said, "This is an Ancient Tomb, and ancient people revered the arts of Ghosts and gods. These nine Talismanic Incantations must be for suppressing the fierce ghosts or zombies inside. Also, they likely have certain taboos or rules, which is why all nine Exorcism Talismans are needed to open the Tomb Chamber door."

He rubbed his chin, pondering, "So, how long has this Tomb existed? Does it have a thousand-year history? If not, what could be inside?"

The more Ye Bai thought, the more interested he became, wishing he could enter the Tomb immediately to see the treasures. But he also knew the timing wasn't right yet.

If he rushed in and encountered danger, it would be too late for regrets. So, he could only suppress his impulse and wait patiently.

He rested on a rock at the mountain peak for a while until night fell.

Ye Bai took Yang Mi and the other woman to find a safe, hidden place to hide. When the night was deep and moonlight bathed the earth, Ye Bai quietly sneaked back to the peak, preparing to enter the Tomb.

Just as he arrived before the Bronze Door, he felt a sudden cold wind hitting his face. This chill was mixed with traces of Yin Qi, blowing against his face and making him shiver.

This was a sign that the protective array outside the Tomb had been activated.

"I thought tonight would be easier, but I didn't expect to run into this."

Ye Bai's mind raced, and he instantly thought of a solution. He took his backpack out of his Storage Ring, removed the gold, jade, and emeralds inside, and threw them around the Tomb.

He knew this arrangement could trigger the array outside the Tomb.

This way, the yin-sha qi inside the Tomb would be affected and would surely fly into a rage, attacking those outside.

Once the Ghosts inside the Tomb became enraged, they would reveal their tracks. Then, he could follow the clues to find the entrance to the Ancient Tomb.

As for the gold and jade, Ye Bai could guarantee they were perfectly intact when thrown out.

He scattered a large amount of gold, jewelry, and jade outside, totaling about ten tons.

Although he didn't understand antiques, such things were extremely expensive, especially in today's society.

He believed that the moment these treasures were thrown out, the Ghost inside the Tomb would be absolutely furious. Once it lost its temper, it would leave traces, allowing him to enter the Tomb smoothly.

It was that simple.

Following Ye Bai's series of actions in front of the Ancient Tomb, the viewers in the Live Stream Room began to boil with excitement again.

"Wow, Boss Ye Bai is going to do something big! Throwing so much gold and jewelry, that's too extravagant!"

"This stream is getting more and more exciting. I wonder what will happen next."

"The two female celebrities look stunning dressed as vampires. I'm looking forward to their performance in the Ancient Tomb."

"Can Ye Bai really find the entrance to the Ancient Tomb? I'm so nervous!"

Meanwhile, backstage, the staff were also nervously staring at the screen, watching the soaring bullet comments and popularity with great excitement.

The Director rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "This episode will definitely be a huge hit. Ye Bai and the others are doing great."

In the live broadcast, after throwing the gold and jewelry, Ye Bai waited quietly for a reaction from the Ancient Tomb.

Meng Ziyi and Yang Mi hid to the side, feeling both nervous and expectant. Meng Ziyi whispered, "Brother Ye Bai, will this really work?"

Ye Bai nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, as long as there are Ghosts in the Tomb, there will definitely be a reaction."

Yang Mi looked around nervously and said, "What if something terrifying appears?"

Ye Bai glanced at her and said, "With me here, there's no need to fear."

After a while, strange phenomena indeed began to appear around the Ancient Tomb. Gusts of yin wind blew, and something seemed to be wriggling in the surrounding grass.

The viewers in the Live Stream Room became even more excited.

"Look, something's happening!"

"So nervous, I wonder what will show up."

"Boss Ye Bai is too amazing to come up with such a method."

Ye Bai stared intently at the Ancient Tomb, gripping his peach wood sword, ready to deal with any danger at any moment.

Suddenly, a dark shadow lunged out of the grass toward Ye Bai. Ye Bai reacted quickly, sidestepping to dodge the attack. The shadow landed on the ground; it turned out to be a strange-looking monster.
